Do you think I have a case? Is it possibly "reverse discrimination"? It's so hard for a "whitey" like me to get ahead in life and I just feel like it's so unfair. If I have a severe case of Attention Deficit Disorder can I qualify for promotion on the basis of the Americans With Disabilities Act? Can anyone help a brother out?
Here's my (truncated) resume;
It took me five stays, at four different colleges to finally get my degree. No, I didn't have a drug problem, I was just like a lot of other young people and was "finding myself".
I had a really great job at my state's oil and gas commission, but I quit that after just more than a year.
Now I'm guitting my current gig because others have hurt my feelings.
I'm afraid that I'm going to pick up the sobriquet, "barraquitta".
If you were still in high school you would be put on a 504 Plan, if not an IEP. In those cases you would probably have a number of accomodations provided: from sitting at the front, sitting apart from others, a "helper" student, even up to and including additional time for assignments. Maybe even self-decided "breaks" from class to go to the library/media center and look at Nike ads on the internet.
As it is, as an adult, you can't be helped.
And yeah, I know that this is an anti-Palin thread.

Sounds like you would make a great dog walker. Then you have nothing to forget since the dogs are leading you.

Not to worry if you are good looking and know how to flaunt it, life's rewards will be there for you.
Of course not when you are cute and flaunt it, clearly anything said negative is pure jealousy. It was never Barbie's fault but always Ken's.
Most of the time these things just blow over and go away, but this lady has a knack.
There are a lot of good articles being posted online. Evidently folks from her history are putting 2 and 2 together and this includes McCain staff people. Some interesting suggestions that need to be read for their own merit. Buying into them at this point is questionable as they are more of a little bit here and there with similar threads. Her enemies within Alaska and the party are sharpening their knives.

Rather juvenile response to the real world don't you think? Trust me, this will happen again and again and again in your future.
